Still getting lot of spam a day

Question

I just upgrade my site to new version of Q2A but i'm still seeing high spam rate.

I thought this was fix in new script.

Comments

What do you think Q2A should do about new questions asked in order to "fix" this issue?

If you have version 1.7 you dont get this problem but you are getting this issue in new version, something must change in new version they way it handle spam.

Nothing has been "broken" that should be "fixed" in 1.8.2. And no, I'm NOT getting this issue in the new version, as you stated.

Regarding your "must change" request, all I can do is asking you again: what do you suggest?

Answer 1

NoSpam plugin prevents spams 100%.

Answer 2

I'm using AntiBot Captcha plugin with the latest q2a version.

it is working very well and has almost stopped spam registrations using bots. (I had 1000 to 2000 bots registrations each day!)

Just install it go to plugin settings increase the "Symbol count" to more than 6 and add some letters to "Character Set". (Characters are case sensitive)
